I don't quite have the luxury of cherry-picking - I have to see what comes my way. But I have always been picky.

If I read something and respond to the role, that's what happens, and if those happen to be a few comedies in a row, or not, so be it.

You're sent scripts, and for some, as soon as you start reading them, you feel an instant connection to the character. You know who they are, you know how to play them, and there is instant enthusiasm. Then, at the audition, you don't have nerves because of that natural affinity.

Growing up, I was surrounded by music by the Stones, Carole King, and the Beach Boys. I didn't know who Michael Jackson was till I was about 13.

The family is our greatest luxury.

I like simplicity; I don't need luxury.

Most of the neighbours didn't like our parents, and they particularly gave Dad a very wide berth. We kids didn't have that luxury.

I don't think I've the luxury of being weak. Being strong is my only option.

I think the older I get, the more I realize that the ultimate luxury is time.
